Rickperry.com would like for you to support Ron Paul’s campaign

Yes, that’s actually Ron Paul’s website asking you to donate to his campaign. It appears someone has bought the rickperry.com domain name and set up a redirect to ronpaul2012.com.

If you’re looking for information on how to donate to Rick Perry’s presidential campaign you’d want to go to rickperry.org.

It’s an easy trick to play on any politician, business or organization. In fact, it’s why many will buy up domain names similar to their official sites and set up redirects themselves. For now, Ron Paul supporters are having fun with the switch. As one wrote on this Ron Paul forum:

“After doing some reading over at www.rickperry.com this guy definitely has my support! The media sure doesn’t give him the coverage he deserves!” lol

Also, a warning to Newt Gingrich’s campaign: newtgingrich.com is currently for sale. His campaign, located at newt.org, might want to look into that.
